Explanatory Statement. 



To My Kinsfolk, Descendants of Ezra Ear II and his Wife, 
Mary Sab in : After the compilation and publication in 1901 of 
the pamphlet entitled, " Cromwell's Lake and the Heirs of Ezra 
Earll," my attention was drawn to early New England records 
showing that our ancestor John Earll, 2nd, was the husband of 
Mary Wilcox, daughter of David Wilcox and his wife Mary 
Cooke ; and that through her we are descended from three of the 
Mayflower founders of New England, two of whom were signers 
of the famous compact recognized by students of American 
history as the actual basis of our Republican form of govern- 
ment. 

The more prominent events in the lives of these our Pilgrim 
sires and their worthy sons are matters of public record, and 
were long since combined into most interesting and instructive 
biographical sketches, which are a legitimate part of our family 
history. 

While the data contained in the pamphlet mentioned more 
than met the legal requirements which called it into existence, 
its value as a family history would have been greatly increased 
had the genealogical tables it contained, instead of ending with 
the names of the heirs-in-law of Ezra Earll and Mary Sabin, 
been so extended as to embrace all of their living descendants. 

The knowledge that one has behind him a long line of hon- 
ored, liberty-loving and patriotic sires, most assuredly tends to 
increase his self-respect and love of country, and thereby im- 
proves his standing as an American citizen. 

For the reasons stated I have deemed it worth while to pub- 
lish in durable form this second and enlarged record of the 
ancestors and descendants of Ezra Earll and Mary Sabin.

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES. 



Francis Cooke, i 577-1653, the seventh signer of the 
Mayflower Compact, was a native of Schrooby, once the 
hunting seat of the Archbishop of York. The palace there 
is described as a pretentious structure, which had two court 
yards, and was surrounded by a moat. The ancestors of 
the Cookes are said to have been Romanists, and there is 
some uncertainty as to date on which Francis Cooke es- 
poused the doctrines of the Separatists. His name appears 
in the list of those designated " Exiles from Schrooby." 
Having worshiped with Brewster and Bradford there, he 
went with them to Holland, reaching Leyden in 1609. At 
Leyden he became an inmate of the home of Pastor Robin- 
son, whose large house was also a place of worship. 
Among those who regularly attended service there was Hes- 
ter the Walloon, who later became the wife of Francis Cooke. 
Hester Cooke did not accompany her husband to Plymouth, 
but came about two years later in the ship Ann. Their 
house at Plymouth was on Leyden Street, adjoining that of 
Edward Winslow. 

Francis Cooke is described by one of his biographers as 
"a man of sound judgment, of decisive, though not arbi- 
trary action, who could see both sides of any question even 
when the necessity of action or conviction might be against 
his interest." In 1634 he was chosen a referee in settle- 
ment of various aifairs between members of the colony. 
His death in 1653 was regarded an irreparable loss by his 
townsmen. 

John Cooke, about 1612-1695 ; oldest son of Francis 
Cooke and his wife Hester, came to Plymouth with his father 
on the Mayflower in 1620. His extreme youth is empha- 



sized by a passage in the early records, which states that 
" he was led ashore by his father's hand," 

On March 28, 1634, he was married to Sarah Warren, 
daughter of Richard Warren and his wife Elizabetli. He 
resided for a number of years in that section of Plymouth 
known as Rocky Xook. On June 7, 1637, he volunteered to 
serve in the Pequot war on condition that provision be made 
for the care of his family during his absence. He was a 
member of the Plymouth Alilitary Company in 1643, and a 
representative of Plymouth in the General Assembly of 
Alassachusetts Bay Colony in 1638-9, from,i64i to 1644, in 
1647, ^^^ from 1653 to 1656. Plymouth Church made him 
one of her deacons, but disagreeing with the pastor, Rev. 
John Raynor, upon theological issues, and with others of 
the colony with reference to the persecution of the Quakers, 
to removed to Dartmouth, of which he was one of the first 
purchasers. He was a selectman there in 1670, from 1672 
to 1673, in 1675, and from 1679 to 1683. He was also the 
representative of that town in the General Court from 1666 
to 1668, from 1673 to 1675, from 1679 to 1682, and in 1686. 
He was one of the company that built " the first vessel of 
the colony — the forty-ton leviathan of the deep, the pride 
and delight of Plymouth." He was also largely interested 
in the first ferry that plied between Dartmouth and Rhode 
Island. About the time of his settlement at Dartmouth he 
openly espoused the religious principles advocated by Roger 
Williams and Obadiah Holmes, and was for many years a 
minister in the Baptist denomination. He died at Dart- 
mouth November 23, 1695, the last male surAavor of the 
^Mayflower. His unmarked grave is at Oxford, the upper 
village of the town. His will, executed November 9, 1694, 
is recorded in Bristol County Register of Probate Office, 
vol. I, page 139. 

Richard Warren, 15 — 1628, the father of Sarah War- 
ren Cooke, was not of the Leyden Company. Pie came 
from London to join the Pilgrim band, and was one of the 

8 



signers of the immortal compact framed in the cabin of the 
Mayflower, which converted an obscure band of adven- 
turers into the founders of a mighty commonwealth. Mor- 
ton, in his New England Memorial, prints his name as 
twelfth in the list of signers, and Prince, in his New Eng- 
land Chronology, adds the honorable prefix " Mr." from 
the register at the end of Bradford's folio manuscript. He 
was one of the third exploring party which was surprised 
by the Indians on December i8, 1620, at the spot since 
known as the scene of " The First Encounter." Technical- 
ly speaking, he was one of the first to land in Plymouth, 
December 21, 1620, on what may be called the birthday of 
New England. 

" Under the land division of 1623, his apportionment 
as one of the Mayflower passengers, fell in the north side 
of the town, with William White, Edward Winslow, John 
Goodman, John Cruckston, John Alden, Marie Chilton, 
Capt. Miles Standish, Francis Eaton, Henry Thompson, and 
Hamiltie Cooper. In the apportionment to those who came 
in the Ann, his lands were on the other side of the town, 
toward Eele River, in the section later known as Welling- 
sly." He also owned land along the shore of the present 
Warren's Cove. His house was on his Eele River lands, 
and it was there that he died in 1628. 

" A contemporaneous authority describes him as grave 
Richard Vv arren, a man of integrity, justice and upright- 
ness, of piety and serious religion, and as a useful instru- 
ment during the short time he lived, bearing a deep share in 
the difiiculties and troubles of the plantation." 

Elizabeth, the wife of Richard Warren, the mother of 
Sarah Warren Cooke, was married in England, and, accom- 
panied by her daughters, followed her husband to Plymouth 
in the Ann in 1623. Mrs. Warren was rated in the Plym- 
outh tax list of 1632-3, and was one of the first purchasers 
at Dartsmouth. A study of the early Plymouth records 
leads to the conclusion that she was a woman of force and 



social position in the community, and she is therein spoken 
of as Mistress EHzabeth Warren, a designation by no means 
common. Hers was, among the colonists, an unusual case 
of continued widowhood. A glimpse of one side of her 
domestic life is to be had in connection with the prosecu- 
tion by the General Court of her servant, Thomas Williams, 
July 5, 1635, for " speaking profane and blasphemous 
speeches against ye masjestie of God." " There being," 
say the records, " some dissention between him and the 
dame, she, after other things, exhorting him to fear God 
and do his duty." Mrs. Warren, after the marriage of her 
daughters, conveyed to their respective husbands certain 
lands variously located at Eele River and Wellingsly. She 
died at Plymouth, October 2, 1673, aged about 90 years. 

John Cooke and his wife Sarah Warren were the parents 
of: 

Sarah Cooke, 

Elizabeth Cooke, 

Esther Cooke, 

Mercy Cooke, 

Mary Cooke, 

Elizabeth Cooke^ 164 — 1715, daughter of John Cooke 
and his wife Sarah Warren, was married November 28, 
1661, to Daniel Wilcox, of Portsmouth, R. I., Dartsmouth, 
Mass., and Tiverton, R. I. His will, dated June 9, 1702, 
and proven on August 25th following, mentions his wife 
Elizabeth and their eight children, viz : 

Daniel Wilcox, 

Samuel Wilcox, 

Edward Wilcox, 

Mary Wilcox, wife of John Earle (2), 

Thomas Wilcox, 

Susanna Wilcox, 

Lydia Wilcox, and 

Sarah Wilcox, wife of Edward Briggs. 

John Earll, colonist, father of John Earll, 2nd, was 
born in England in 1639, and came from London to Boston 

10 



in the ship " Speedwell," in 1656. After a short sojourn in 
Boston, he became a resident of Northampton, Mass. There, 
on March 24, 1663, he was married to Mary Webb, oldest 
daughter of John and Ann Webb. For about thirteen years 
after the date of their marriage John and Alary Webb Earll 
resided at Northampton. During that period at least five 
children were born to them, including two sons, named re- 
spectively, Noah and John. On the night of March 13th, 
1676, when King Philip's war was at its height, a consider- 
able body of hostile Indians surrounded Northampton, and, 
under cover of the darkness, made openings in the palisade 
which the inhabitants had constructed about the settle- 
ment. At early dawn on the 14th they rushed in and set 
fire to ten dwellings and murdered five persons, including 
Mary, the wife of John Earll, before the sleeping garrison 
had time to rally and repulse them. Soon after this start- 
ling event John Earll removed with his children to South- 
ampton, Long Island, N. Y. There, in November, 1678, 
he was married to his second wife, Mary Raynor, daughter 
of Thomas Raynor, of that settlement. At Southampton, 
L. I., John Earll acquired considerable real estate, and at 
one period was rated also for land in the adjoining town of 
East Hampton. 

Richard Webb, colonist, grandfather of Mary Webb, 
first wife of John Earll, colonist, was of the Braintree Com- 
pany of Pilgrims which came to Newtown — now Cambridge 
— Mass., in 1633, with Rev. Thomas Hooker. In 1636 Rich- 
ard Webb migrated with that worthy from Newtown to 
Hartford, Conn. — a memorable journey, of which Dr. Trum- 
ble gives the following interesting account: 

" About the beginning of June, 1636, Mr. Hooker and 
about 100 men, women, and children took their departure 
from Newtown and traveled more than a hundred miles 
through a hideous wilderness to Har-tford. They made their 
journey over mountains, through swamps, thickets, and 
rivers which were not passable but with great difticulty. 

11 



They had no cover but the heavens, nor any lodgings but 
those that simple nature afforded them. They drove with 
them i6o head of cattle and carried their packs and some 
utensils- This adventure was the more remarkable, as 
many of the company were persons of figure, who had lived 
in England in honor, affluence and delicacy, and were en- 
tire strangers to fatigue and danger." 

In the centre of the ancient bural ground at Hartford, 
Conn., there stands a monument erected about half a cen- 
tury ago to the memory of the founders of that city. Among 
the honored names inscribed thereon is that of Richard 
Webb. The Hartford Quarterly, in a recent issue, refer- 
ing to this monument and the names it contains, says: 
" These names represent the fountain head of most of the 
pure streams which have carried American national princi- 
ples to the farthermost regions of this country." 

John Webb, son of Richard Weeb and his wife Ann, 
resided at Hartford for several years. His daughter Mary 
was born there just 15 years and 47 days prior to the date 
of her marriage to John Earll, at Northampton, Mass. 

John Earll, 2nd, of Southampton, L. I., son of John 
Earll, colonist, and his wife Mary Webb, was married to 
Mary Wilcox, daughter of Daniel Wilcox and his wife 
Elizabeth Cooke. He resided on his Southampton estate, 
a considerable portion of which he inherited from his father, 
until 1730, when he removed to and became a permanent 
resident of New York City. 

John Earll, 3d, son of John Earll, 2nd, and his wife 
Mary Wiicox, went from his home at Southampton, L. I., 
to New York City when a young man, and was already 
married and settled in business as a glazier, or importer and 
dealer in glass, when his father took up his permanent resi- 
dence there in 1730. There is in the Orange County Clerk's 
office at Goshen, N. Y., record of a deed, dated April 3d, 
I747» by which " John Earll, of New York City, and Abi- 

12 



gail, his wife," convey to one John Brush a certain tract of 
land, bounded in part by " Quaspeeck Pond in Orange Coun- 
ty." Quaspeeck is given as the Indian name of the sheet of 
water now known as Rockland Lake, in the present County 
of Rockland. 

John Earll^ 4th, son of John Earll, glazier, and his 
wife Abigail, is the last of the four common ancestors nam- 
ed John of the Earll family, of Orange County, N. Y. He 
was married in New York City to Rachel Adams, a devout 
and comely Quakeress. It is uncertain at just what date 
he and his family became permanent residents of Orange 
County. Records in the County Clerk's office show that on 
the 26th day of June, 1762, he purchased from Thomas 
Smith, for the sum of ^1633, 10 shillings, 857 acres of land, 
covering the present site of the Village of Highland Mills, 
the hamlet of Woodbury Falls, and all but the most south- 
erly portion of the attractive sheet of water now known as 
Cromwell Lake. The county records also show that on 
July 28, 1774, he purchased from the lieirs of William 
Smith, Esq., an adjoining tract containing 750 acres, beside 
several smaller farms, so that a few years previous to his 
death, which occurred in 1786, his total holdings in tlie 
present town of Woodbury exceeded 2,000 acres, or over 
three square miles. 

It is recited in the deed first mentioned that John Earll 
was. at the date of purchase, viz., June 26, 1762, residing in 
a house on the premises. This house was beyond question 
the first dwelling of any pretentions as to architectural 
style erected within the limits of the present town of Wood- 
burv. It was built about the year 1730 for the patentee, 
Nathaniel Hazard. Sr.. merchant of New York Citv. In 
1742 Hazard sold it, together with 437 acres of adjacent 
land to Thomas Smith, Jr., from whom it passed, in 1762, 
as previously stated, to John Earll, 4th. This building, re- 
ferred to at different periods in ancient records as the Haz- 

13 



ard, the Smith, and the Earll house, stood on the King's 
Highway leading from Newburgh to the Jerseys. Its ex- 
act location would seem to have been in the centre of the 
lawn just north of the spacious and modern residence of 
Charles Henry Townsend, in the Village of Highland Mills. 

John Earll, 4th, like many other holders of large tracts of 
land in sparsely settled sections of the country, at that per- 
iod, was soon constrained to open this old house as a hos- 
telry for the accommodation of travelers. During the Rev- 
olutionary war is was the scene of some stirring events. 

At the outbreak of the war John Earll, 4th, and his Qua- 
ker wife had two married daughters, and seven stalwart 
sons, named respectively, Peter, John, Jr., Jonathan, Sam- 
uel. Richard, Benjamin and Ezra. The names of all of 
these sons but Ezra appear with that of their father in the 
list of signers of the Revolutionary Pledge in 1775 : while 
that of Ezra and all of his brothers but Peter are found 
recorded in official records of soldiers of Woodbury Clove, 
who served in the ranks of the Revolutionary army. It is 
a matter of record too that this John Earl and his seven sons 
were among the patriots of that historic region most feared 
and 'hated by the notorious outlaw, Claudius Smith, and his 
cowboys of the Ramapo, as well as by their loyalist allies. 

On one occasion when the house of John Earll was left 
for a short time unguarded, word was secretly carried by 
a Tory neighbor to the outlaw leader, who, at the head of a 
hastily gathered band of his followers, swooped down on it 
at night and carried off a large amount of " booty," includ- 
ing a fine young horse, some 'home-made cloth and 300 
guineas. This robbery was one of the crimes for which 
Claudius Smith and several of his gang were indicted, con- 
victed and hung at Goshen a few months later. 

According to family tradition General Washington and 
his staff were on several occasions entertained at the above 
mentioned hostelry of John Earll. Lieut. -Colonel Aaron 
Burr, too, was a frequent visitor there during the several 

14 



months he and his regiment were performing special scout 
duty in the Valley of the Ramapo and adjacent country. 

This, John Earll's, will is dated May 21, 1781. It was 
probated in 1786, and reads as follows: 

In the name of God, Amen, I, John Earll, of Smith's 
Clove in the Pricinct of Cornwel in the County of Orange 
and State of New York, being weak in body but sound in 
mind and memory, do make this my last will and testament 
in manner and form following: First of all I give and 
bequeath unto my beloved wife the income of the one-third 
of my whole estate whilst she remains my widow. I also 
give and bequeath unto my daughter Elizabeth, her heirs 
and assigns forever one hundred acres of land to be laid 
out on the east end of a tract of one hundred and fifty acres 
which I purchased of her husband James Lewis. I also 
give and bequeath unto my son John twenty shillings. I 
also give and bequeath unto my son Samuel his heirs and 
assigns forever fifty acres of land to be run out on the south- 
west corner of my farm including the tract I purchased of 
Isaac Cronkite, excepting and always reserving the main 
stream of water with as much land adjoining as shall be 
tliought necessary or useful for the use of the Grist Mill or 
any other mill or mills that may be built in future. I also 
give and bequeath unto my son Richard his heirs and as- 
signs forever fifty acres of land to be laid out on the west 
end of a tract above described I purchased from James 
Lewis. I also give and bequeath unto my son Benjamin his 
heirs and assigns forever two hundred acres of land to in-

also give and bequeath unto my son Ezra his heirs and as- 
signs forever all my lands and tennaments lying southwest- 
erlj- from a line extending from a stake and heap of stones 
standing by the brook near the middle lengthways of a 
small piece of land I bargained for late of Arthur Yoimians 
westerly to the public highway near the easterly side of a 
high nole to a stake and heap of stones, and on the south- 
easterly side of the road together with the remained of my 
land (not above bequeathed) on the westerly side of the pub- 
lic highway and on the south of a tract adjoining belonging 
to William Thorn and called his Reed lot I also give and 
bequeath unto my son Jonathan all my remaining lands to

It is also my will that my said son Ezrea should one year 
after my decease pay imto my two grandchildren Josepb 
and Mary Holloway the sum of twenty poimds each equal to 
wheat at six shillings per bushel, to pay unto William 
Thorn the contents of his bond which I gave him for ye half 
of the Grist Mill, and further, to pay out of my moveable 
estate with my notes and bonds included, all my other just 
debts, and that the rem^ainder shall be divided equally 
amongst my children their heirs and assigns forever, and I 
do herebv nominate and appoint Jesse Woodhull, Esq., Ben- 
jamin, Peter and Ezrea, my three sons, to be my sole execu- 
tors for fullfiling this my last will and testament, hereby 
revoking all former Wills by me made heretofore. In wit- 
ness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and real this 25 
daj- of May, 1781. John Earll (L. S.). Sealed and signed 
in the presence of John Weygant, John White, Wm. Thorn.

Ezra Earll, son of John Earll, 4th, and his wife Rach- 
el Adams, was bom prior to the year 1750, and was married 
about the year 1770 to Mary Sabin. He was by occupation 
a farmer, and, as shown by records in the offices of the Coun- 
tv Clerk and Surrogate, a man of affairs in his town. By 
orovisions contained in the will of his father be came into 
possession of about 400 acres of land, together with the 
sheet of water then called Hazard's Pond, but later Rum- 
sev's Pond, and now known as Cromwell's Lake. 

At one period Ezra Earll is said to have lived near the 
lake, but during the latter part of his life he resided in the 
house in the village now occupied by Theodore Weygant, 
one of his great grandsons. It was in this house that Ezra 
Earll died, without a will, in the year 1806, leaving surviv- 
ing him his wife and three married daughters. 

William Sabin, the great-great-grandfather of IMary 
Sabin. wife of Ezra Earll, was of French descent. During 
the latter vears of his life he was a resident of Rehoboth, 
Mass. His Darents were wealthy and cultured Huguenots, 
who fled from France, their native land, during the days of 
religious persecution which immediately preceded the re- 
vocation of the Edict of Nantes. The family, having secur- 
ed a safe passage across the channel, settled in England near 
the border line of Wales. , 

This William Sabin came from England to America 
about the year 1640. The records of Rehoboth, Mass., show 
that he was one of a company that founded that town in 
1643, and that he resided there for a quarter of a century. 
These old records also show that he was financially one of 
the foremost men of the settlement, and that he gave liber- 
ally of his means for the relief of his less fortunate neigh- 
bors, especially such as suffered from the ravages of the In- 
dians. He was a leading spirit in matters relating to the 
church and schools, as well as in all such civil affairs as 
tended to the general betterment of Plymouth colony. His 

17 



first wife, of whose family name his descendants are unin- 
formed, died in 1660. On Dec. 22, 1663, he was married to 
;Martha Allex. daughter of Tames and Ann Allen, of 
Medfield, Mass. His death occurred in the year 1687. 
His will, the original of which is on file in Boston, is dated 
June 4, 1685. and was probated July 7, 1687. In it he 
mentions sixteen of his twenty children. 

Benjamin Sabin. son of above mentioned ^^'illiam Sa- 
bin, was born !May 3, 1646. He resided at Rehoboth until 
1675, when he removed to Roxbury. Alass. He was one of 
the thirteen pioneers who settled Woodstock. Conn., in 1686. 
During the same year he joined with several others in the 
purchase of a large tract of land, lying just north of Wood- 
stock, which is the site of the present town of Pomfret. He 
was married, first, to Sarah Polly, daughter of John and 
Rebecca Polly, of Roxbury, Mass., who was born June 2, 
1650. On July 5, 1678, he was married to his second wife, 
Sarah Parker, who died June 22, 1717. John Polly men- 
tions in his will " the four motherless children of our daugh- 
ter Sabin." and provides that they have their mother's share 
of his estate. Benjamiin Sabin died at Pomfret, July 21. 
1727, aged 80 years. 

In several reports made by Richard, the Earl of Belmont, 
Governor of the Colony of New York, to the Lords Commis- 
sioners of Trade and Plantations, in 1699. he refers to im- 
portant information received from Benjamin Sabin and Rev. 
]Mr. D wight of Woodstock. Conn., concerning a contem- 
plated Indian uprising, which they claimed was " being 
stirred up by the Governor of Canada and his Jesuits." 

Ebenezer Sabin, son of Benjamin and his first wife 
Sarah Polly, was born at Rehoboth. Mass.. Dec. 10, 1671. 
He was married in 1695, to Susana ?, who was ad- 
mitted to full communion in the church at Roxbury in June, 
1696. In the year 1700 he was an ensign in an expedition 
against Canada, and died at his home in Woodstock, Conn., 
Sept. 18, 1739. 

18 



Joshua Sabin, son of Ebenezer and his wife Susana, 
was born May 26, 1706. On January 2.2, 1734, he was mar- 
ried to Mary Polly, a distant relative, whose parents were 
natives of France. He resided at or near Pomfret, Conn., 
the greater part of his Hfe, but shortly before the date of 
his death, removed to New Lebanon Springs, N. Y. He 
held a commission in General Braddock's army and was 
killed in the disastrous defeat that overtook that brave but 
ill-starred commander and his army on the banks of the 
Monongahela in June, 1755. 

Mary Sabin, youngest daughter of Joshua and Mary 
Polly Sabin, and wife of Ezra Earll, was born ^lay 29, 1753, 
at New Lebanon Springs, N. Y., and died at the home of her 
granddaughter. Elizabeth Hoag, near the village of High- 
land Mills, Orange County. N. Y., at 2 o'clock p. m., Tues- 
day. Oct. 27, 1846. 

Over a quarter of a century ago Mrs. Elizabeth Hoag 
made to the writer the following interesting statement 
which he jotted down in a pocket memorandum book which 
now lies open before him : 

" Grandmother Earll lived with me the last few years of 
her life. She was very fond of dress and would not go out 
anywhere unless she was dressed just so. Her father, she 
used to tell me, was killed in Braddock's defeat, when she 
was but two years old. A year or so later her mother died 
and she went with her grandmother to live. There were 
three sets of orphans there, all grandchildren. When she 
was quite a girl her grandmother used to show her heavy 
silks and fine things, which she said had been sent to the 
family from France when her father and mother were alive. 
Grandmother used to talk of some damask silk which was 
saved and made up for her when she was grown. She had 
a brother named Joshua."
